Following their individual commitments in Januray 2013, the companies implemented a series of measures in five areas:
- simple and robust reporting tools;
- age-appropriate privacy settings;
- wider use of content classification;
- wider availability and use of parental controls;
- effective takedown of child abuse material.
Detailed reports of these action are to be found in attached documents.

The Task Force on Interoperability and Machine readability met in a number of meetings in 2013 and came up with a data-model to be further explored in the CIP-project Miracle as well as setting up a Community group site on W3C
